No, Bush did the right thing and Scooter should feel lucky he got that. I wouldn't have even commuted his sentence. Libby is a traitor.

No, I dont think he should have been pardon, who else was there.  He caused the death of a young women and know telling how many more.  He was given the job of being trusted and he betrayed the very people he work for.  He should have been made to serve a long, long time behind bars, just like any other criminal.  It really was my only reget of President Bush, but absolutly no worse than all the idiots that Bill Clinton turned loose..

Scooter fell on his sword to protect the administration. A sense of loyalty should have gotten him his pardon. What the Bush  White House did in outing a CIA operative was reprehensable, but you should still take care of your own. Another disgusting act by the worst administration in history!

Aol is a liberally biased fact based entertainment venue and it's polls are slanted. The reason they are slanted is because you select content to display to your subscribers that always show conservatives in a bad light so that the only people casting votes on AOL have already been subliminally indoctrinated. The same is true of news outlets such as CNN> DIck cheney has more intergrity and guts than Obama who is used to the dirty little chicago style politics. Also think of this. Barack Obama was never a product of an American slave ancestory, it took a Kenyan to become the first black president. The American Blacks still hold on to the slave/victim mentality which made them unable to put up a Black candidate, thus Obama.

Yes: there were several other Very guilty persons who were excused from culpability in this situation for reasons only the Special Prosecutor can explain. Libby was trying to protect others and athough that was wrong he is not the only one who should be held accountable for this fiasco.

NO WAY IN HELL. Commuting his sentence was also BS, even if it disappointed a lot of inmates who were looking forward to riding a "scooter" in prison. Shunning Libby sounds good. AN ANGRY AMERICAN

Definately Not. I am sick and tired of politicians breaking rules and doing whatever they want while they are supposed to be serving the country. Probably Chaney should be in jail too!!

Yes, He should have pardoned Libby. In the first place, he did not expose her. Secondly, her husband used to introduce to people as a CIA agent. Everybody in Washington knew she was with the CIA. If it wasn't for the left wing press, the whole thing would have been laughed at.
